....From what I've seen, it isn't a matter of WHAT you tow your boat with as the speed you pull it, as the wind resistance increases drastically after 60mph. My normal towing speed is only 50-60mph, sometimes I'll do 65 to get through highway traffic. My tow vehicle is a '00 Ford Explorer 4.0L V6 with towing package. My loaded trailer is about 3,400 pounds (about 70% of max rated tow load).

The cat will be fine without surgery, but he's probably not going to be around for next Christmas ... I suppose the way to look at this is that he & his brother have had nine years together that they wouldn't have gotten at the Denton pound.

Looks like I may drive up in a couple hours to Texoma through Oklahoma ... (377 to 70 by way of 32). Anything weird I need to know about OK roads & driving? Toll roads, unusual laws, etc?

Tacky jokes welcome

I heard that when you cross the Red River into Oklahoma, your teeth begin to fall out and your 2nd cousin begins to look attractive.
